New 2023 Spotify Plugin

asktheeightball · April 18, 2024, 6:33pm

Guess we’re the only ones having this issue? Anyone else have problems loading playlists?

SimonE · April 18, 2024, 9:02pm

No, working properly for me.

snuka · April 19, 2024, 11:47am

not working for me either… connected via Ethernet. Spotify shows up in the device list but sometimes won’t connect. Only a restart of the plugin or Volumio helps.

I had the same effect today. I can‘t connect to volumio Spotify. System restart wont help. After I played One Song with my raspotify, It works again with my Volumio! Very strange

@volumio Is there any update on the new Volumio Spotify Plugin.

Buzzzz · April 26, 2024, 9:29am

Seems like the Spotify can´t connect to the API. Me phone says connecting … .
This is from my live log after I tried to resume last played:

Looks like I have to boot my raspotify again!

balbuze · April 26, 2024, 9:33am

works ok here.
something else (network?) is wrong for you

Buzzzz · April 26, 2024, 9:43am

It plays webradio without a problem. Only Spotify is the problem.
Last time I could switch to Volumio Spotify after I played one song over my raspotify.
Today it wont work. Can´t connect to Volumio Spotify API.
Strange is the API says it receives volume.

I have the same error log, My spotify Playlist ( create by myself ) is not loading, but Official Spotify playlist is ok.
The strange things is that 2 days ago it works, then failed again, maybe the Spotify site had change something in the my playlist format ?? Hope it can be fixed.

dewen · April 30, 2024, 2:04pm

Same problem +1

billjon · April 30, 2024, 6:12pm

Same problem

Wheaten · April 30, 2024, 7:04pm

Hi,

Not sure how to approach this one. Raspotify hasn’t had development or upgrades for 1+ year and it’s not acting nice with Volumio.
Hard to determine a root cause.

Gold007 · May 1, 2024, 9:44am

Hi,

I have a problem for months now. Autoplay is not working at all when using the plugin and spotify connect. I have tried to reinstall the plugin, reboot etc a few times but didn’t change anything.
When it gets to the last song in the current list it just stops palying. If I try to manually start play or skip to the next song, it will just play the last song again…

Log link: http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/owmy0sH.html

Volumio and spotify plugin is updated to latest, running on Pi Zero 2 W.

Wheaten · May 1, 2024, 9:54am

Got confirmation that Volumio will start improving the plugin, now the Motivo has launched. No ETA yet.

volumio · May 4, 2024, 4:26pm

Work on the plugin has resumed.

What we are working on:

Improving general stability (lot of improvements there)
Adding gapless playback (further work needed on the daemon)
Allow Spotify to be discovered and used in the same network (by wives etc) when logged in.

Keep the feedbacks coming. What is appreaciated:

Logs: paste the log link after your problem occurs
Detail what the problem is: what has happened, what are the circumstances, what was the desired behaviour
Do not post about old plugins (like someone is doing)

Thanks

nommo · May 7, 2024, 12:04pm

Great to hear gapless is on the menu. I use multiroom to synch mostly DJ mixes across multiple sound systems and it’s really frustrating to have to use only Tidal for this purpose currently. You can’t be having gaps in DJ mixes when you’re having a party!

muchmx · May 16, 2024, 2:52pm

I have problem to load my playlist on spotify plugin v4,0,4. on raspberry Pi 4
The playlist created my own no load. No problem with the rest of playlist or Spatify functions.
Have any solution?
Tx

louisandthecat · May 16, 2024, 10:29pm

In the last week, my volumio (on Raspberry Pi Zero 2) some become super slow when using the Spotify plugin

Here are some logs - can anyone help?

logs.txt (103.1 KB)

louisandthecat · May 16, 2024, 10:33pm

To give an example. I just tried to play an album. It took a really long time to start playing, played for about 5 seconds then stopped again.

volumio · May 18, 2024, 9:55am

Update: we had a major setback with the release, since gapless playback is not working as realiably as we would like.
However, we are on it. Our goal is to have something in about 10 days
